Wiggins: I Want the Yellow Jersey
Many Pro Cyclist are starting their off-season training and declaring their goals for 2006. Include Olymipic Gold Medalist and British Track Ace Bradley Wiggens among those making bold predictions. Bradley Wiggens one of the new Cofidis team members is declaring that he is aiming to win the prologue in the Tour de France in 2006. Wiggens is a track specialist and the prologue is a perfect showcase for his talents. Wiggens says:
The Yellow Jersey is a career highlight for any cyclist, even more than an olympic gold medal
Wiggens arrives from Credit Agricole where he did not get a crack at riding the Tour.
I feel that I should have participated in the Tour last year I was in very good form at the time, but this is part of being a professional cyclist.
